I, for one, cannot tolerate the tinny and insufferable noise that passes for "music" these days. Particularly not if I'm trying to enjoy a cup of tea and a newspaper. For this reason I avoid our local lunchtime eateries.

But this aside, as a new member of this website, I am under the impression that there is a private joke being shared amongst certain regular visitors. I would appreciate if the regular visitors here could clarify this joke, or avoid posting such cryptic references in future. It is not condusive to visitors such as myself.
